What are the Different Types of Art Galleries?
There are as many types of art galleries as there are types of art. In general, an art gallery has a specific focus, and is managed by a curator who specializes in that type of art. Common focuses for art galleries are art from a particular region, art in a certain medium, art of a singular style, or art which has a specific focus, such as political art. Typically, all of the art in an art gallery is for sale, although the gallery may retain a special permanent collection, or sponsor a unique display of art.
